Are you looking for an addictive and delicious dip perfect for the holidays? You are in the right place. This is the ultimate dip for peppermint lovers! This has everything you will have in peppermint cheesecake in the form of dip! This is easy to make and a crowd pleaser. We make this every year during holidays in our home.
This best served with graham crackers. Chocolate flavored ones also work amazingly well. Serve with your personal choice of crackers and chocolate cookies. For an ultimate peppermint experience, try serving with this Eggless Triple Peppermint Cookies.
This is the most easy dip and you can't go wrong in this. There are not many steps. Infact, just only one. Beat everything until uniform and smooth. That's all! In 5 minutes, this amazing dip will be ready. I love peppermint flavor. Be it in cocoa, like this Peppermint Hot Chocolate Bombs, or this Eggless Peppermint Cake, I can't stop indulging in this beautiful flavor! Not only me, you too! This is the amazing flavor of the season!
Use cream cheese at room temperature for silky smooth dip. Also use couple of drops of peppermint extract and not regular mint extract. Make sure to use red and white traditional candy canes and not colored or other fruit flavored ones. The crushed candies will give the beautiful pink color to the dip. Guess, these pointers are easy to note and whip up this delicious dip!
I am sharing peppermint based treats for this week's Blogging Marathon themed "Holiday Treats". My first post was this delicious Peppermint Icecream!
